A different fundraising account, however, appeared to be set up Aug. 20 by "Supporters of Avalynn" and had a Saint Louis, Missouri, locator.

The original account said it was created by "Supporters of Michael Brown," according to a cached version of the web address.

That fundraising account, which was removed from the website at about 3 p.m. today, had raised no money and had a $5,000 goal.

It had been altered to contain the same photo of the child and similar language in the fundraising description.

Gulflive.com contacted GoFundMe regarding the authenticity of both accounts.

A GoFundMe representative responded via email and said details about the closed account are not available.

"As for the campaign that is still live, our team is currently working with the campaign organizer to get more information added to the campaign," the email said.

The representative also noted that "all users are able to edit the content of their campaigns after creating them."

The Justice for AvaLynn page on Facebook has already warned of possible scammers. The page said that any and all accounts on Instagram, Twitter, Reddit, Tumblr and others were not created by the family.

The family was responsible only for the Justice for AvaLynn page and the GoFundMe account that has garnered nearly $10,000.
